Let us see two ways to add padding to Android TextView,
1. Using XML Attribute
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:text="Hello World"
android:padding="10dp"/>
You may also want to use the below padding options based on your use case.
- paddingLeft
- paddingRight
- paddingTop
- paddingBottom
- paddingStart
- paddingEnd

2. Setting TextView Padding Programatically
TextView tv = findViewById(R.id.myTextView);
tv.setPadding(50,10,10,10);
